Cyan (light blue) dot = Low turning point; Red dot = High turning point
The oscillator is about to cross the zero line into the "look for selling opportunities" zone. Again, this week's chart has been posted after Monday's close and therefore shows an extra data point. This extra data point shows that the oscillator will most likely cross over the zero line this week and confirm the low turning point during the week ending 16 March 2007.
Remember, the Commitment of Traders data is collected weekly after the close on Tuesday and the Commitment of Traders Report is published after the close on Friday.
